200x questions /w pics

[Ghostv2]

Well, nobody answered my last thread so i decided i would ask a few more questions probably easier to answer and throw up some pics. Everyone here likes pics.

1. How do i mount the toolbox, do i need a bracket? Isnt it suppose to go like next to the grab bar or someplace close?
2. The bracket thing, fender/seat? Where does it go? Edit: Whats this toolbox to since its not for the 200x?



3. It seems like its already adjusted pretty low, but if i bounce hard enough the fenders can touch the tires. Do i adjust it more? or could the nitrogen be emptied out or something?



Found a cool light!



Trying to work out all the kinks on the new trike since its raining. Not use to all the molesting and welding people do to these machines since i grew up riding my fathers all original 200s. And let me just say this, i would rather pull start than the forward kick start on the 200x anyday. Pain in the arse.

the bracket thingy goes under the fender. its a brace. if you have OEM fenders, you'll see how it'll fit up once the fender is off

that doesnt look like a 200x toolbox to me...

Front or rear fender? And they are maier fenders, so thats probably why i couldnt figure it out. And it was just given to me when i got the bike, do you know what its to?

Wrong toolbox for the 200x..it should look like this.



This is my 250SX, but the style and connection of the toolbox is the same as the 200X.

Your rear shock may be whipped..or it's a combination of the fact the trike has WAY big rear tires and you're a big guy!!?? My 200X didn't like my large stature..that is why I moved up to the 350X..

The tires are the correct size i believe just not the old balloon type. And im only like 120-130lbs. My thoughts were that the someone drained the nitrogen or something. Where can you get them refilled and how much? If that is the case.
And what do you mean by whipped?

Whipped = worn out.

If you are only 120 and those are stock size tires(they look big in the pic) then I'd say I'm sticking with the whipped shock theory. I'm 230 and my 200x didn't come close to bottom when I rode it..

Since the nitrogen is charged in at about 250PSI you don't want to mess with it and if it's leaked out it's because the seals are shot.

Best just take the shock out and get it to a rebuilder..should be around $100. Seals replaced and recharged..

costs 30 dollars to do labor here. i think with seals it costs me 60 bucks.

Ill just have to wait until i get my cast off and i can ride again to really test it out to see how urgent a rebuild is. Still curious as to what the toolbox is to though. gonna have to look.
I can pretty much eliminate all honda trikes though.

toolbox looks to be off a streetbike, like a Honda CL360

[Ghostv2]

I looked it up and thats exactly what it is from. No clue how i got my hands on it. maybe ill rig it up on something.

ebay, classified,replace cheaper

[Ghostv2]

Is there any common swaps from other bikes people use or should i try to stick with the OEM one?
